And the Newest Restaurant on North Shepherd is…

THE LEADER NEWS

There’s a new restaurant coming to N. Shepherd – Dan Braun with Braun Enterprises confirms that Mellow Mushroom Pizza Bakers has signed a contract to open shop at Braun’s forthcoming development at 1919 North Shepherd.

Mellow Mushroom is a pizzeria that originated in Atlanta, Georgia and has 150 locations throughout the United States. In addition to pizzas, they serve calzones, hoagies, salads, and appetizers. They often feature a large selection of beer.

The Braun development, in a spot now occupied by a used car dealership, joins numerous others from the company in the area, including Ella Plaza and Harolds in the Heights. In addition to the Mellow Mushroom at 1919, there will be space for a few more retailers. The rendering shows an aesthetic which is similar to other Braun properties.

As The Leader has previously reported, North Shepherd around 19th Street is taking off. With Fat Cat Creamery, Hugs and Donuts and the soon to open Ka Sushi at one retail center and Bernadine’s and Hunky Dory in the works for another, with Dallas’ Cane Russo saying they will open by the end of the year at 1835 N Shepherd Dr., there won’t be a lack of culinary options in the area.
